Safari and super slow after Big Sur update

Jeeeeez. Every year, I look forward to migrating from chrome to Safari. Every time I notice something that makes me jump straight back to Chrome within an hour. I never remember the next year what that thing was, but I presume whatever it was will probably be fixed.

This time I was particularly excited, as I was looking forward to using M1 with safari. Thinking it would be extra snappy.

Literally THE FIRST WEBSITE I VISTED ground to a halt. I got a little warning at the top saying "significant energy being used" - meanwhile I open chrome and it loads instantly and the website functions as per normal even with 30 tabs open at the same time.

I search Google, and here I am, complaining with you guys. I cant believe this has been on going for you guys for over a year now.

Apple needs to really sort themselves out.... endless bugs!

Same as you guys, safari is damn slow ! Have to change browser

I have the same problem with MacBook Pro 2020 - M1, 16Gb of RAM.

I open Safari, click the address bar, start typing, everything blocks for a second, then address bar gets filled with 1-2 second delay.

Awful, I have everything latest, machine and the system - please don't make me stop using Safari after 15 years :(

Monterey 12.1 ... I am on optical internet 50Mb/s optic.... trying to upload image of proof AN ERROR HAS OCCURED TRY AGAIN LATER. appeared on this forum.

in Safari apple.com took me 18s to load. Facebook.com took me 30s to load ... and currently downloading Edge to compare if this shit is on this MACBOOK PRO M1 only ... Because on the same router are connected more device and non of them has the same problems as me. Even my 10y laptop loads quicker than default M1 PRO tuning Safari ... considering that 200e beats 3000e laptop gives Apple really bad odds.

Again in Safari I was able to run speedometer.sk pumping up 50+Mb/s speeds with latency 10ms .... So the trouble is not outside of this laptop.
